Description

Originally founded October 15, 1921 by Arthur Cremin, the New York Schools of Music (now City Music Schools) was the realization of his dream to make quality music education available to everyone.

Today we carry on that tradition with inexpensive private instruction on any musical instrument or voice.

Important:

Scheduling for private lessons is flexible and subject to the instructor's availability. If the instructor is unavailable during the date or time originally booked, CourseHorse and the class provider will help arrange for a reschedule that works for both parties.

Once a date and time is decided on, the class provider's standard cancellation policy applies. In the event that schedules don't match up and a date and time cannot be scheduled, students are entitled to a refund.
Price posted is for One hour Private Class. Students will choose their preferred time from 10 am to 8 pm, and have this arranged with the instructor.

Please bring your musical instrument.

Refund Policy

3 business days notice for an excused absence, no refunds, absent lessons can be carried over.

Missed Lessons

If you need to miss a lesson, please give us 3 business days notice to allow us to reschedule.
Students who miss lessons without 3 business days notice will be charged for this lesson. All lesson cards are non-transferable and non-refundable.

Teachers’ Absence

The schools teaching staff is chosen from musicians of the highest caliber, many of whom are still actively performing. Because of this, they reserve the right to provide you with an equally qualified substitute, should your regular teacher be unavailable.

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

Guitar Lessons: Acoustic / Electric (Private)

Vanessa G. • June 30, 2022

I loved the lessons. The instructor had me explore songs and artists that I never heard of before, even though they were quite famous, I just haven't been exposed to it. It was so helpful to play actual songs, such as Everly Brothers' "Dream" and how he broke down the first part of "Over the Hills and Far Away" from Led Zeppelin.
